Rootעמם (ʿ-m-m)
Core Meaningsto associate, be united, peoplehood, communal unity, kin-group solidarity
Semantic Rangepeople, nation, kin-group, tribal community, subjects of a ruler, covenant community
Conceptual Significanceעַם is a central covenantal term in the Hebrew Bible, often describing Israel as the unified people of YHWH. It conveys not merely a population but a bonded community defined by shared ancestry, covenant, and divine relationship.
Morphological NotesCommon masculine singular noun in construct (עַמֵּ) with 2fs pronominal suffix (ךְ), yielding "people of you" addressed to a female.
Rendering RationaleThe noun עַם denotes a united people or kin-group bound together in communal identity. The form is masculine singular in construct with a 2nd person feminine singular suffix, so the rendering preserves the singular collective sense of "people" and specifies that the possessive "your" addresses a woman.
